Turin and classical music

For music lovers, your stay in Turin will include a wonderful evening at the Teatro Regio di Torino!

The Teatro Regio was designed by Benedetto Alfieri and built in the early 18th century. Opened in 1740, it was one of the largest theatres in the world at the time, seating 2,500. In 1936, the theatre burned down and had to close. Only the façade remained. The Teatro Regio was reopened and inaugurated in 1973 with Verdi's I Vespri Siciliani, starring Maria Callas and Giuseppe di Stefano.  

The seasons at the Teatro Regio offer opera, dance and concerts of the highest quality. In operation for over 277 years, the Regio remains one of the best stages in the classical world.

Finally, it is essential to attend a show at the Auditorium Giovanni Agnelli - Lingotto, dug fifteen metres deep. A unique experience in Turin!
